A Little About Me
Mike Hughes lives in Raleigh, N.C. He and his wife of 30 years have 2 children and an old house that has served as a learning lab for 25 years. Mike has had a passion for woodworking since right after wood was invented in 1967. He grew up with two older brothers, so most of his initial woodworking projects were crude defensive weapons. Later he graduated to more refined products, such as inlaid cudgels. He's made everything covering the gamut of life, from newborn baby keepsake boxes to cremation urns, from built-in cabinets, beds and dressers to jewelry. Today, he's retired, so he has a lot of time on his hands, and his wife is very hopeful you'll order something to keep Mike down in his shop and out of her hair. If you are interested in something you don't see here, please contact Mike via the website email. He does lots of commission work and enjoys pleasing customers.
